This month's challenge at somein30 is called Memory Lane, and the normal mode asked for "fandoms that were important to you at some point, organized in a timeline".

I took this challenge *very literally* and started with my first fandom, and then tried to make an icon for my fave fandom for every single year since. I also tried to represent its essence, i.e. exactly what I liked about it. You guessed it, it's mostly romance! :D

The old fandoms were pretty hard to find caps for, that was a challenge all in itself. The first one I made my own caps for is CSI (in 2004). But otoh, I found that someone uploaded all the scenes of my favorite Santa Barbara pairing to youtube. O_o (Yes, I lost some time to that. Oops.)

I tried to make a complete timeline, but I didn't *quite* make it. For one, I had to stop after 20 (in 2009) or I wouldn't have made the deadline, and for another, I can't remember which fandoms I had in 1993/1994. It was before the Internet. I have no records (and no memories). ;)

Here are the icons from contests I've entered over the last half year. Due to my pause in February/March, this just looks like it covers half a year - it's really only three months. :) There are challenge entries as well as rejects/2nd choices I couldn't enter, and some that never made it because I missed the deadlines (devious buggers).
